Manawatū has scooped Napier City Council in the grand finals of a competition to find New Zealand's best tap water. Councillor Keith Price, chair of Napier City Council's Delivery and Regulatory Committee, said they were "stoked to be named one of the best-tasting tap water suppliers in New Zealand". "Napier has a real natural advantage with the Heretaunga Plains aquifer, which provides a premium source of water," Price said.
